My mission

My name is Ivan

Bring out the beuty and personallity of our beloved creatures and create timeless memories.

Capturing personality

I strive to capture your pet's unique personality and it into a beautiful piece of art that you'll love showcasing on wall.

To help us achieve this, please provide a short description of your pet along with their favorite treats, ensuring smooth collaboration with your furry companion.

I offer three main of portraits: studio, action, and outdoor. You can choose to mix and match these options, and if scheduled for the same day, you'll receive a discount.

Scroll down for more information for each type of portrait.

Studio Portraits

Action Portraits

Outdoor Portraits

Studio Portraits

I will create a fully equipped photo studio with lighting, backgrounds, and various accessories to ensure perfect lighting. Alternatively, I can set up the studio at your location, which is especially helpful for cats or other pets that are more comfortable in their own surroundings. My aim is to capture your furry friend in their most relaxed state.

ACTION PORTRAITS

Like in any outdoor activiry, weathe ris very important. Inparticular the lighting. On a rainy day, the light is generally boaring and not to mention that water and photograpy gear do not mix together. We will check the weather forcast for that day and fina a suitable condition.

OUTDOOR PORTRAITS

Similar to action portraits, weather is king here. However, as the pet will be static we can add some lights to help bring more contrast and create an interesting light setup.

Why is editing needed?

I specialize in showcasing your pet's distinct personality. Following our photo shoot, you will have five beautiful images. Why only five? As you may, pets can be quite unpredictable, making it a bit more challenging for pet photographers compared to regular portraits. I also dedicate time to process and enhance each image to achieve the best results. Take a look at the example and slide the slider to see the before and after!
